Grading
No scores/letter grades, but a certificate of participation/completion is available upon request for learners who complete at least 8 sessions.Class Experience
This class is available for students who would like one-to-one time for Psychology. This may be to supplement a particular class or prepare for a specific exam, or it may be to allow a less restrictive approach to exploring the student's interests. I am happy to work with students who would like a personalised curriculum or introduction to a range of psychology topics. Tutoring can be set up as a regular meeting, depending on what suits the student and their schedule. One-off sessions are also bookable if your learner would just like to explore a single topic! -- Please message to discuss particular subject/topic requirements for your learner. -- Click "check availability" to schedule based on my standard availability, or reach out with your desired timeframe, day of the week, and time zone. The class will be adapted to the requirements of each student. I am happy to work with them on a custom syllabus to explore their interests. Learners may request lessons on a particular topic that they want to discuss during the class time - I also aim to encourage learners to think ahead each time about what they need to / would like to discuss in the next session. Teaching methods will include guided questioning, discussion, mini games/quizzes, and exam practice. I don't use AI tools to provide feedback to learners as I believe that feedback should be provided that is genuine and in my own voice. Topics available: - Learners' own special interest topics - Introduction to Psychology for those who are fairly new to the topic - High School Psychology support (e.g. A-level preparation) - Research Methods / Research Projects in Psychology - Preparation for University-level study - Individual tuition following any of my other Outschool class descriptions I can create bespoke materials and session-plans for learners to suit their interests. Some examples of recent requests include: - Psychology of video game design - Music psychology - Memory and revision techniques - Perception and illusions - Halloween Psychology - Psychology of Magic - Circadian Rhythms and the brain

Parental Guidance
Tutoring sessions are most productive when the tutor has as much information as possible about the student's requirements and aims. Please take a moment to communicate these, at least 24 hours before your first session where possible.
